		<description>@Katie,

The SEO part isn&#039;t easy.  Especially since most of it is done behind the scenes and can&#039;t be viewed when looking over your site.  What I have found is that there are some good tools out there to check some of the SEO options - namely Google Webmaster Tools.  While it&#039;s not entirely comprehensive, it does give a list of pages with identical titles, long titles, short titles, etc...  Since the title tag is how Google indexes the pages, it&#039;s crucial to set them up correctly.

I&#039;m thinking about doing a post on Headspace -- one of the better WordPress plugins for this type of management but haven&#039;t really gotten all my thoughts in order just yet.  It is in the works though.</description>

		<description>Mark,

I&#039;m honored by all your kind comments!  You do a great job here, and it sounds like I might be able to learn a bit from you about SEO.  I just don&#039;t make/take the time to really SEO my posts/titles after spending all that time that you so precisely broke down doing my writing and numerous other blog &quot;tasks&quot;.  I rarely find time to comment on other blogs lately, perhaps why my numbers were down in Dec. compared to Nov. ??

Thanks again for the mentions -- I did nearly reply to your comment at Problogger, but I was running super low on time. Wanted you to know that I recognized your name when your email came in, so maybe you&#039;re not so bad at making bloggy connections after all!

		<description>Hi Mark, Steve here Yanna&#039;s boyfriend. We met at the Black lotus brewery with the belly dancers. Yanna sent me the link to this post because I have started writing articles. It seems easy to navigate your blog and your writing flows well. As for marketing a blog on little time there are some tools that I have read about that I think you might be interested in.
Check out traffic bug and link assistant.
Have a nice holiday.</description>
